Shattered

A shattered glass
The empty frame
True love broke
A heart to blame
 
Your mind speaks out
Your body freezes
Your heart takes action
But leaves in pieces
 
You may be struggling
You may be in pain
To pick up the glass
And say you loved in vain
 
But to sweep it up
To be that strong
Requires the thought
That your heart was wrong
 
Love is patient
Love is kind
Matters of the heart
Will blow the mind
 
Where the mind is at risk
The heart is at fault
To love too long
You become the vault
 
You hurt so much
You block it out
You refuse to love
Without a doubt
 
One day you’ll see
The two things you find
They'll one day connect
It's the heart and the mind
